Notice the KDE taskbar in the middle... that's the 'bottom' of the screen!

Oops, taskbar got hidden just before the shot but the bottom of the screen is
where the grey strip is
Still a problem in xorg 6.8.0-r1 In fact I occasionally get the effect at 1280x1024 as well but turning the monitor off and on sorts it out (doesn't sort it out in 640x480 etc though). -Shaun I'm not sure if it's similar to Mr. Crampton's problem. When I run anything but my native resolution on my internal LCD screen (1280x800) the screen seems to only display half and then the rest is black. I wanted to capture a screenshot but the screenshot displayed the whole screen as if the bug was not there. However, it surely is 'cause I can only see half of the screen. The screen isn't crunched, cramped, nor resized. It just doesn't show part of it. I'm not sure if this is related, but mplayer, zsnes, epsxe, and practically every other program that tries to change the resolution fails and the program ends up running in either a corner or the center of my screen, very small-like. I'm using ati-drivers-8.10.19, xorg-x11-6.8.2-r1, and my card is Mobility 128MB ATI Radeon 9700 Pro 256-bit 3D Video. dmesg shows nothing interesting. xorg output also shows nothing interesting. If anybody wants any information please ask. Thanks. Oh, and on all external devices (CRT or TV) the resolutions and resolution changing function perfectly (or rather as expected). I'd also like to note that turning "VideoOverlay" on fixes the mplayer resolution changing. With that off or the "OpenGLOverlay" option on xv won't even work. I should also note that at the moment that zsnes and epsxe are 32-bit binary packages that I use on my 64-bit system. OpenGL for all my 32-bit games do not use the ati drivers and don't function properly. It's probably not even related to this bug. Sorry. If this is still a problem with >=xorg-x11-6.8.99.15, please reopen. |
